27. www.wbai.org is also covering this live with a reporter in the street

Unfortunately, I can't access the visual live streams at work, but I can get radio on my iPhone.

[doublethink]

30. Good to hear you can get it .....

on radio, thanks for that link. :)

[deutsey]

31. They just reported that cellphones may be jammed in the street

Couldn't do a live call-in report, so they had to record what was happening and run back to the station to play it.

9. kick

At what point does Manhattan gridlock? At what point does the police attempt to protect Wall Street keep the stockbrokers and clerks from getting to work?

[hedgehog]

10. Anyone see any coverage on the tv?

[HappyMe]

11. Yes. They said that they were heading

toward Wall St. It's closed off, you need a work id to get in.

[progressoid]

18. Nothing

[HappyMe]

22. It has been on my local news

since 6:30am. They just finished another report.

[mmonk]

12. Excellent. As both an American and investor, I support this whole heartedly.

[aquart]

13. Narrative description would be appreciated.

My Nook can't carry a stream. And my desktop is on the other coast.

[Ganja Ninja]

14. This is exactly what they should have been doing all along.

Shut down the markets. Don't let them open.

[sarcasmo]

17. Damn it why do I have to go to work right now?

At least I can check Twitter on my phone.

Go go occupiers!

[piratefish08]

19. they are BARRICADING IN a cop car!

[sarcasmo]

20. The populace has awoke to the greed that is wall street.

[steve2470]

21. k&r nt

[sarcasmo]

24. I would imagine the Greedy people inside are a bit nervous right now.

[Yo_Mama]

35. Yeah, but it is because of what is happening in Europe,

rather than what is happening in Manhattan.

Their world is shaking, but every OWS protester could vanish from the streets, or the number could double, and it wouldn't change much. In some ways, this demonstration is ill-timed.

25. They succeeded in at least delaying the opening of the NYSE!!!!!

[PoliticAverse]

28. The opening wasn't delayed, the NYSE just opened at the normal time of 9:30 Eastern. n/t

[ProdigalJunkMail]

32. nope...trading started exactly when scheduled...

all this breathlessness...

sP

[PoliticAverse]

26. The police seem to be having no problem controlling the crowd. n/t

[Imajika]

33. That's the way it looks to me as well...

Seems like the cops were prepared and kept the protestors completely corralled.

[deutsey]

29. How many people are in the streets?

[PoliticAverse]

34. Around the New York Stock Exchange around 1,000 maybe (seeing estimates 500-2,000) n/t

[Javaman]

36. Imagine, if you will...

the protesters rush the cops, storm the stock exchange and destroy the computers.

That would be the shot hear 'round the world, bastille day wrapped in one.

I can dream.
